I Became the Male Lead’s Stepmother After Transmigrating

Chapter 89: The Benefactor was Lu Wanggui

After settling the matter of the house, Xiang Xiaoyuan took Yang Liu to the private seminar that Lu Wanggui talked about.

The venue was high-class, elegant and low-key. After Xiang Xiaoyuan took out the invitation card, professional staff took them to a private room. There were men and women in the private room. Most of them were unfamiliar faces. Xiang Xiaoyuan did not recognize any of them.

There were some differences between the world in the book and the real world. In the real world, one could easily search the internet and find all kinds of information about the people they wanted to know about, including their photos. However, when she first transmigrated into the novel, she wanted to see if Lu Wanggui was a fat man, so she searched his name online. Unfortunately, all that came out were some business achievements and important events. There was not a single photo.

There were quite a number of people attending this seminar. After a rough scan, there were more than twenty people.

Xiang Xiaoyuan knew very well that she did not want to join in the fun. She pulled Yang Liu to the last row and quietly sat down. Suddenly, she felt Yang Liu’s arm tighten. She turned her head and saw Yang Liu’s excited face, she shook her arm with all her strength, she lowered her voice. “That gray-haired old man in a black suit went to my alma mater to give a speech before. He was very, very good! I heard that my alma mater did a lot of work to invite him!”

Xiang Xiaoyuan was surprised. It seemed that the value of this seminar was higher than she had imagined.

Big bosses were indeed big bosses. They were quick-witted and had unique perspectives on issues. They made a small seminar look like a debate. Even Xiang Xiaoyuan, who did not know much about the stock market, wanted to clap when she heard it. The seminar did not last long, only about forty minutes. However, Xiang Xiaoyuan and Yang Liu felt that they had benefited greatly and even felt that time had passed too quickly.

The two of them took a lot of notes. The seminar was not only about the stock market, but also about the future economic trend. Therefore, after they came out, they had the same idea, which was that listening to an expert was better than reading ten years of books!

The elders were not lying!

…

On the subway, Lu Bei finally relaxed a little after finishing his day’s work.

Fortunately, there was a seat on the subway today. Like other commuters, he took out his phone to check Weibo and read entertainment gossip to relieve the tiredness of the day.

At this moment, a trending search on Weibo caught his attention.

# The Man Behind Lin Siqing #

Lu Bei’s finger could not help but click on the trending search. There were no photos or videos in the trending search. There were only posts from the marketing account, which were about Lin Siqing’s new drama. Lin Siqing had a benefactor. He had promoted her from an unknown extras to the role of female lead.

Lin Siqing was not very famous in the entertainment industry, but her career was smooth. There had been rumors that she had a mysterious benefactor behind her. This benefactor was very wealthy and had spent a lot of money to protect Lin Siqing, that was why her career was so smooth-sailing. There were also people who said that Lin Siqing would enter the movie industry next year with the help of the benefactor and compete for an award.

The reason why Lu Bei was interested in this trending topic was probably because… the man behind it seemed to be his father.

Two years ago, someone leaked a photo of a luxury car parked in front of Lin Siqing’s apartment. Lin Siqing was lucky, but it could also be that someone was deliberately diverting the attention of the netizens, they were more concerned about the gossip that appeared on the same day about some young man who was hooking up with his fans, and they did not notice Lin Siqing, this small-time artiste.

However, Lu Bei recognized his family car, and his friends also recognized it.

In the past year, as Lin Siqing’s fame rose, more and more people were curious about who the man behind her was. There were also paparazzi following her every day to see if they could catch some explosive news, but unfortunately, they could not find anything.

At some point, the lack of information had turned into the fact that the person behind her was very powerful, and the media did not dare to expose it.

The marketing account also sent a photo of Lin Siqing with a diamond ring on her finger, saying that something good was about to happen to her. The tone of the wishes was a little strange, and it wondered who the mysterious man behind her.

Seeing this, Lu Bei put away his phone and leaned against the subway seat to clear his mind. At this moment, he suddenly wondered if Xiang Xiaoyuan knew about this news? What did she think after knowing?

He returned home with this question in his mind. At this moment, Xiang Xiaoyuan was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eating fruit while watching a television series. The screen was playing the series starring Lin Siqing.

Lu Bei: “…”

It seemed that she already knew.
